Spring is here!

March arrived like a lamb and its gentleness has given way to longer days and birdsong everywhere.

You can feel the energy and the quickening beneath your feet as you step foot outdoors and embrace the awakening of a lazy, sleepy ground.  Little green shoots are everywhere and the buds on the trees are ready to bloom but not just yet.  Meanwhile, birds and farm animals are poised and ready to give birth.  It's the time where everything is new again. 

Spring is the perfect season to give someone you love a Billet Doux (bil-lay-doo) card. It's French for a love note, a soft note. We could certainly use more love and softness in our world.  Each greeting card is especially designed to warm up, light up and deliver a smile to the receiver but it brings even more love to the sender for all the thoughts and words that come from the heart.
